================================

[Call for papers]
Papers on original research unpublished elsewhere in all areas related to combinatorial pattern matching and its applications are sought. The proceedings will be published by LIPIcs (of Dagstuhl).

[Topics of Interest]
Papers are solicited on, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Bioinformatics and computational biology
- Coding and data compression
- Combinatorics on words
- Data mining
- Information retrieval
- Natural language processing
- Pattern discovery
- String algorithms
- String processing in databases
- Symbolic computing
- Text searching and indexing

[Keynote speakers]
Martin Farach-Colton (Rutgers University)
Zsuzsanna Lipták (University of Verona)
Tetsuo Shibuya (University of Tokyo)

[Important dates]
- Submission deadline: February 28, 2024 (AoE) (Extended)
- Author notification: April 10, 2024 (Extended)
- Conference: June 25-27, 2024

[Submission]
Submission is through the EasyChair conference system, by using the link below. The submission process requires registration to create an
EasyChair account prior to submission.

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cpm2024

[Submission format]
The authors should submit an extended abstract not exceeding 12 single-spaced pages on A4 paper, excluding the title page (containing title, authors, affiliations, e-mail addresses, a short abstract, and keywords) and the references. The authors are required to use the LaTeX style file supplied by Dagstuhl (LIPIcs). Papers must be submitted as a single file in PDF format.

Additional material intended for the referees but not for publication in the final version - for example details of proofs - may be placed in a clearly marked appendix that is not included in the page limit. The program code of experimental papers should be made public, with reasonable documentation, such that the PC may evaluate replicability of experimental results.

Papers submitted for review should represent original, previously unpublished work and surveys of important results. At the time the extended abstract is submitted to CPM, and for the entire review period, the paper (or essentially the same paper) should not be under review by any other conference with published proceedings or by a scientific journal.

At least one author of an accepted paper is expected to present the paper at the conference as a registered participant. The conference will be held in person at the ACROS Fukuoka, located at the heart of the city of Fukuoka, Japan.
